Xiaoqian hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "My wife stayed in her room for a long time today, and went to the lady's room in the afternoon."

Han Zitong was stunned: "She went to my room? What did she do?"

Xiaoqian whispered: "Madam went over and asked us for records of all the big and small events in the mansion that the lady has handled over the years, as well as the keys to the accounting office, and some seals. When we came in just now, we heard that the lady had called the few people in charge of the mansion to her yard."

“…”

Han Zitong's eyes flashed, and she felt a twitch in her throat, and she lowered her head.

I sat next to me, my face slightly darkened.

Unexpectedly, Han Ruoshi was so fast that when Han Zitong said she would not care about the matter, she immediately took away everything in her hands and asked those in charge to go to her yard, so of course she also listened to her.

This Jinling Mansion is really going to "change ownership" now.

Han Zitong was silent for a while before she said hoarsely: "Is that right..."

Xiaoqian nodded gently and looked at her carefully: "Miss..."

“…”

"You and the eldest lady - you and the wife are still sisters..."

“…”

"What are you saying that you can't explain clearly in person?"

Han Zitong didn't answer her words, and didn't even raise her head. I only saw her drooping eyelashes trembling slightly. In the blink of an eye, I could always see the light in her eyes overflowing, but she kept gritting her teeth and insisting that it did not flow out.

After being silent for a while, she smiled and said sourly: "What else can I say now?"

“…”

"What else is there to say?"

“…”

As she said, she was a little lost, like a puppet without spirits. She slowly picked up the bowls and chopsticks and ate rice in her mouth, not even eating any food. Xiaoqian was also a clever girl. At this time, she saw her lady like this, so she felt so distressed that she had a bump in her eyebrows, but she didn't know what to say or how to persuade her. After all, not everyone can solve this problem.

I sat opposite me, gently winked at her, and signaled her not to disturb her. At this time, it would be best to let Han Zitong cry.

Xiaoqian hesitated for a moment and finally retreated silently.

I sat there motionlessly, just watching Han Zitong holding the bowl, her mouth full of rice, both embarrassed and pitiful. After a while, a tear flowed out of her eyes and dripped into her bowl with a squeak.

After all, she could only taste the bitterness herself.

|

That night, because Xiaoqian and the others cleaned up another room and sent bedding and utensils outside, Han Zitong did not sleep with me. I lay alone on the wide bed, listening to the low sob sounds coming from the other room, and could only sigh.

It was dark and dawn.

This time, Han Zitong couldn't wake up so early. Maybe she cried too late last night. After getting up, I finished washing up and saw her walking out. Her eyes were red and swollen like peaches. When I saw me, I knew it and I couldn't tell it.

When Xiaoqian and the others brought the breakfast in and we were sitting and preparing to eat, I picked up the bowl of porridge and stirred it with a spoon, then looked up at her: "What are you going to do today?"

She was stunned and looked up at me: "You ask me?"

"Um."

"What's the meaning?"

"Can you be like me, what do you do? Do you really plan to just waste it here?"

Her face darkened, and she lowered her head and looked at the bowl of porridge in front of her: "I'm not going to waste it, I just--"

Seeing that she was having a hard time talking, I interrupted her and said with a smile: "I just want to say, no matter what you think, there are things that are not as simple as you can just throw them away."

She looked at me: "What does it mean?"

I smiled and didn't say anything, lowered my head and took a sip of porridge.

After breakfast, Xiaoqian and the others had just removed all the dishes on the table. After a while, they ran back. Han Zitong was about to sit on the couch and continue reading as quietly as me. When she saw her running back panting, she frowned: "What's wrong?"

Xiaoqian stood at the door: "Miss Second, Miss is here!"

"What?!"

"Madam, Madam is here."

Han Zitong's hand shook, and the book fell to the ground. She stood up and said, "Is she here?"

I also stood up from the window and looked out. Sure enough, I saw Han Ruoshi walking over here on the other side of the path from afar.

Suddenly, the quiet inner courtyard suddenly became lively.

Han Zitong and I walked to the door together, watching Han Ruoshi walk to the open space in front of the door, facing us, and the two girls are also following her. Obviously, they have experienced what happened last night. In addition, Han Zitong is in the inner courtyard now, so they can't stop Han Ruoshi from coming in so stubbornly, so when we meet, they both hesitate: "Ms. Yan..."

I waved my hand gently.

At this time, Han Zitong's face turned pale. Looking at his sister under the steps, his throat was trembling for a while: "Sister..."

Compared to her excitement and fragility, Han Ruoshi seemed much colder and waved her sleeves lightly: "Don't call me that, I can't bear it."

“…”

"I don't know what your voice 'sister' means!"

“…”

Han Zitong looked at her, her eyes full of pain.

I stood beside me and remained motionless. I was originally a pair of twin sisters who supported each other, and even looked like one person. The only one they could rely on in the world was the other, but now, they were completely hostile. Speaking of hostility, Han Zitong was not hostile to her sister. After all, it was difficult to change a person's character from childhood to adulthood. As a younger sister, she protected her sister for half her life and could not be completely reversed in a while.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! But Han Ruoshi is different.

This term "sister" and "sister" is a nightmare for many women.

No wonder she is so sensitive to her sister's name now.

She sneered again: "I can't afford to say 'sister'."

Han Zitong's whole body was trembling, as if someone was stabbing her invisible knife in the chest.

The people around him were even more proud and dared not speak out. Han Ruoshi stood there coldly and said, "I have something to say to you."

“…”

"If you don't care, let them all retreat!"

When she said this, she didn't even look at me, but everyone around her looked at me.

The irrelevant person - the most irrelevant person here is of course me.

This means I want to avoid it.

I smiled and said nothing, so I turned around and walked out obediently. The two girls hurriedly followed and said softly: "Miss Yan, are you really avoiding this?"

"It's not a big deal for me to stand there when the two sisters talk."

While talking, he walked out. The maids and servants brought by Han Ruoshi also came out, but they stood at the gate of the inner courtyard. This place became their place, and no one dared to come in casually.

The two girls looked at me and said, "Miss Yan, where are you going?"

I smiled and said, "Let's go around this mansion."

They nodded, followed me across the bridge and walked outside.

As before, we were walking around the mansion. When the servants passing by saw us, their eyes looked very strange. They just asked for peace in a hurry and ran away without having any more conversations with me. I was bored and slowly walked under the big tree that I met Ao Jiayu that day.

But today, there is no cute man with graceful clothes standing on it.

I walked to the tree and just stood still, I suddenly heard a scream coming from the other side of the courtyard where the Ao brothers and sisters lived.

"Why?! I don't believe Dad would do this, he obviously-"

Is this sound Ao Jiayu?

I was stunned for a moment, and when I listened carefully, it was really her voice, which was as crisp and moving as I heard before, but at this time it was completely different from the previous happy and joyful tone.

Could it be—

My heart tightened, and I subconsciously looked at the two girls behind me with the corner of my eyes. They followed me a few steps away, but my ears were stronger than mine, and they all heard them. The two of them looked a little darker, and then they immediately walked up and came forward: "Miss Yan, should we go back?"

Just as they said this, Ao Zhi's heartfelt consolation voice came from inside, and he faintly heard him say, "Father has two arrangements... Since I don't... then you have to take responsibility..."

My heart beats again.

And the two girls had already urged again: "Miss Yan, let's go back."

I was a little troubled, and originally planned to listen to it more, at least know if something happened, as I expected, but obviously after the night before yesterday, Xie Feng gave an explanation to the two girls, and don't let me know about the actions in this mansion for the time being, let alone let me participate too much.

After all, Xie Feng must have doubted me about Han Zitong.

I thought about it, then turned around and said, "Okay". When I was about to leave, my feet stopped and I was tripped by the roots of the big tree exposed on the ground, and fell to the ground immediately.

"Ouch!"

The two girls were startled by me and hurriedly ran over to support me: "Miss Yan, what's wrong with you?"

"Are you injured after falling?"

I knelt on the ground, frowned and reached out to my ankle, and said, "It seems, I twisted it."

"What? Then wait, I'll find a doctor!"

One of them immediately decided to let the other stay and guard me and go to see the doctor.

Seeing her running away in a hurry, as if something big had happened, I felt a little guilty, but at this time I didn't have time to think about anything, because the people in the yard had heard the movement outside, and I heard someone running out of the door, and then Ao Zhi chased out: "Little sister, don't be willful!"
